title: [Ultrasonographic diagnosis of developmental facial defects in fetuses].
abstract: Findings of 55 ultrasound examinations have been evaluated in 35 fetuses with various facial malformations detected by ultrasound and confirmed at birth. Ultrasonographic presentations and diagnostic criteria are given for major facial, palate and lip clefts, abnormal nasal shape, hypo and hypertelorism, microphthalmia, exophthalmia, micro and macrogenia, macroglossia. Ultrasonography proves to be a highly revealing diagnostic study with the provision of a good structural visualization and physicians' skill.
